[QUOTE=FlakAttack;34032678]You know, I do have to comment on something. With the Type 59 (and if you noticed, the Lowe and KV-5 also) moving up to higher tier combat, doesn't that kind of fuck the people who bought the tank for what it was? I'm not saying it shouldn't be moved (I agree with the move), but I am saying owners of such tanks probably deserve some form of compensation for having their tanks changed.[/QUOTE]
They're making it 5% more profitable to compensate for the matchmaking change
Tank stats stay the same, so the owners still have the same tank that they bought

Remember when multi-turrets were definitely coming with the French tanks? yeah.
Had a nice round in the T95 on campikovka earlier. I just drove across the right side of the map with 2 Jagdtigers,a VK4502P ausf B and some small stuff shooting the shit out of me. I took 58 hits and still survived, meanwhile Just4Fun murdered everyone from the flank. :v:
I still can't wrap my head around why the Type 59 was getting T6 medium matchmaking when it's the best T8 medium in the game. Who had that idea? Why do people still think WoT isn't a pay2win game?

The devs made them THINK it's not pay2win, but as soon as you play it for a while, that is past tier 5, you will notice what a horrid pile of unbalanced, cheaply coded, badly patched and broken and all around bloody awful game it actually is, at it's core.
It's rapidly becoming to the point where the devs just aren't gonna add anything anymore except more ways to throw away your money.
[QUOTE=LordLoss;34032236]The Wolverine is easily the best low tier TD in the game, a very worthwhile investment. The Slugger however, I haven't used it but I haven't heard much good about it.[/QUOTE]
I know the Wolverine is supposed to be really good, but my encounters with it have ended in the Wolverine's death every time. It barely damages me.

THANKS WARGAMING, THANKS FOR GIVING THE TYPE 59 MORE PUBLICITY. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS. THIS IS WHAT FUCKING AIGNGSDNGLNSG
Tested the T59's ammo racks with kirederf.
First with the KT. The T59's ammo racks blew up in 3 out of 4 battles, after 2-3 hits in the hull. The turret racks are either stronger than the hull racks, or the diceroll gods were not favouring my hits in them. Can't make a true conclusion with so few tests.
Tiger was unsuccessful but that was because we only tested it once
E-75 was also unfavoured by the diceroll gods. Out of 12-13 hits in 4-5 rounds, 11 did no damage to the ammorack because dicerolls, but the 12 or 13th blew the ammorack sky high.
Basically, the T59's ammoracks are incredibly weak, but it's still up to the dicerolls. Blows up much more often with a good diceroll than its counterparts though.

Yep, got off that train awhile ago, and now with Tribes Ascend beta going on I have almost no reason to come back.
They took too long making shit and filled the time by putting in shitty patches that no one liked and overpowered T8 premiums that you have to fight multiples of every match.

Hahaha, did you notice the oil?
On Russian servers, it's apparently called "Quality Oil", instead of "Lend-Lease Oil", and even the American star is removed from it.
Land-Lease Oil means rations which America provided to SSSR to support them, and the Oil was obviously better than the Soviet one. They clearly changed it on the Russian servers to simply "Quality Oil", so the Russian nationalistic tools wouldn't get pissed about it.

I think the Tier 5 / 6 / 7 matchmaking is more important to being fixed once the Type59 retains normal Tier 8 medium matchmaking
I mean, seriously, the T29 with the 90mm is nothing but an IS-7 accessory in games with 80% of the team being Tier 8+. Which it gets in often. Nor is having a M6 vs a Maus or a T1 Heavy against an IS4 fair.

If you come in contact with a Wolverine, they're doing something wrong.
Played a good sniper round with the Tiger.

Well, if they're spotted and within my LoS, I will always shoot at them, which is often enough to take away half their health. And they often run away after that.

How can a team be so fucking bad that a Tiger does most of the damage and kills in a tier 9 battle and gets 5 medals and the team still loses

Story of my T7 life. If I don't get 3 kills on similar tier tanks per game we lose.
I decided to play my T59 for the first time in a while
On Erlenberg at some bridge on the south side of the map, I was brawling it out with a KV-5 and 1S. Quickly killed the 1S, but the KV-5 had me pinned for a bit until a friendly Type came up as well. He shifted his focus between us while we kept hitting him, and he never managed to hit either one of us :v:
Took us forever though, those things are fucking indestructable. Then when he died he moved himself so when he blew up he'd block the bridge
that BASTARD
Then I came here and [url=http://i.imgur.com/p38Uw.jpg]this happened[/url] which reminded me to submit an RMA for my graphics card.

never underestimate the badness of a team.
I have steamrolled and murdered teams in my wolverine, 4-5 kills. Even 2-3 kills in shit tier games. Still getting defeated.
Remember. for every good play you make, there are 14 other people to do a good job of making it worthless
My JPz just absorbed a BL-10 shot with it's face, seriously it penetrated for no damage.
What.

Music makes me giggle.
The real problem with a type 59 is it has the armor of a tier 9 medium with the vulnerability of a tier 6. If you can get through the armor, it is no trouble, if you have a gun that cannot reliably penetrate.... well then you have a much larger problem.

Completely lost on how to play this game. Whats the best tank to start off with or should I upgrade one of the first 3 tanks? Are different tank classes ( light, heavy, spg etc) put into different teams in matchmaking?

Aim for medium or heavy for your first time, you can generally be focusing on two trees at a time when in between matches (I am doing German mediums and American heavies) Lights take a good understanding of game mechanics to use, SPG's can be akwards of new players, and TD's take some time to learn how to use properly.

What would be a good heavy? I really like Germany too, should I shoot for a heavy from them? Also, how many credits should I be getting per game?
Credits vary per tank and if you're premium or not.
